I received the URL below from a fellow who is on one of my boating mail lists.

It may be of some interest to the folks here who are "into" solar. Note that he has room for TWO 245 Watt panels on his rather large boat. The best he obtained was about 150 Watts during peak summer hours.

After almost two years of Solar we are very happy with them. They are well on the way to crossing the ROI point sometime next year while at the same time we have been able to enjoy several additional quite generator-less hours!
